Seoul Station Druid

field
; Bounty Information
The wanted letters of the awakened criminals were lined up, but there was no way to find them. It would be quite a lot of money to catch one though.
Suho''s footsteps, who had been familiar with each photo one by one, moved to the side of the bulletin board, and another poster appeared all the time.
; Goblin Subjugation
Suwon Field Goblins appear.
500,000 won per hunting reward
Suwon?
Are you familiar with the name? Suho stroked his chin and asked the person next to him.
"What is a field?"
"Uh? Don''t you know the field?"
Yeah.
The man was taken aback by Suho''s dignified answer.
"It''s abandoned land."
"Abandoned?"
To be precise, an area that cannot afford to defend due to lack of national defense.
The hunting grounds were also on Earth, not beyond the portal.
"Where do I get the money to take them?"
A strange smile appeared on Suho''s lips as he heard the explanation.
*
Passing through Anyang City Hall and reaching the vicinity of Buksuwon, I saw a wall stretching to the left and right. It is about 5 meters high and stretches so far that the naked eye cannot see the end.
"How far does that go?"
"We circled around Seoul. You can see it if you open the Maps app."
Watching the taxi driver shut his mouth as if he didn''t want to respond, Suho placed his cell phone at the top of his shopping list.
"Gate 27 is here, sir."
In front of Suho, who calculated the fare and got off, he saw a gate blocking the road. A thick iron gate and a large number 27 written on it.
When you open that door, it''s a field.
A land that cannot be expected to be protected by the state.
A hunting ground where prey hides.
walked towards the gate.
When I heard the sound of a taxi driver talking alone, I was told that Seoul is divided into 12 districts.
There are more than 100 gates going to and from the area, and dozens of external gates heading to the field.
Military bases were stationed around the outer gate, and state institutions such as settlement offices and bloodstone exchanges were also located.
The 7-meter-high barrier was quite grandiose when viewed up close as the fortress wall itself.
As Suho approached the barricade in front of the gate, the sentries in gray uniforms and armed with guns stopped them.
"What kind of dragon are you?"
"I''m here to hunt."
"Would you like a mercenary certificate?"
do not have.
Despite Suho''s words, the soldier responded without changing his expression.
"Go back. Outside the gate is dangerous to the public."
It''s okay.
At Suho''s calm words, the soldier looked at a superior.
With the rank of sergeant insignia stamped on him, he grinned and held out his hand.
There is no use in drying them.
"Can you give me your ID?"
A new resident registration card was issued by the community center.
When I plugged it into the terminal, various histories appeared. Unless you have a criminal history, there is no reason to stop you from leaving.
"Mr. Park Soo-ho?"
Yes.
"Identification has been completed. If you sign here, you can enter."
The agreement stated that the state was not responsible for anything that happened outside the gate.
When Suho signed the autograph without hesitation, he opened a small door that only people could enter under the thick iron gate.
Most of them pass through large gates by car, so the small iron gates were able to pass quickly without waiting in line.
The soldiers'' eyes were fixed on the back of the guard, who walked slowly out of the gate.
"Sergeant Kim, can I send you like that?"
"I''m going to commit suicide on my own feet, but what can I do to stop it?"
"Is that so? Are you suicidal?"
young. I don''t know man. If you just go out like that, you''re one of the two."
Suho''s appearance is not ready at all, even pretending to be.
There was no backpack for supplies, and no armor or weapons were equipped. Moreover, he walked without a motorcycle or car.
How do you stop a madman walking into the field empty-handed?
"Die by predators, or die by monsters."
The figure of Suho walking slowly seemed just like that.
That light step made me feel as if I had no regrets about life at all. I don''t feel any tension at all.
''Hunting is bullshit.''
In the eyes of Sgt. Kim, he was seen only as a suicide who chose his own death.
*
Suho walked down the road.
Because it was an abandoned land, I thought it was a destroyed civilized city, but surprisingly, the road was fine.
Perhaps the transportation network with cities other than Seoul was maintained steadily. Come to think of it, how many cities like Seoul are left?
Isn''t Seoul the only place left in Korea?
Hunting was the purpose, but he was not in a hurry.
I didn''t come back to Earth to make money.
Money is just a means. There is great meaning in seeing the life of the civilized world on the Earth itself.
As I walked, I thought I was too hasty.
He is angry just because his younger brother is being harassed by debtors, so he even goes hunting.
''I don''t even know how much.''
It''s too late to blame. As soon as he came out, he had to finish the hunting necessary for awakening.
Dimensional energy is not enough.
I walked slowly and looked around.
There were few people in the field.
Workers repairing roads.
A group of soldiers on a mission that they do not know whether they are hunting or reconnaissance.
It is unknown where they belong, but people who wear uniform clothes and walk around in groups.
Everyone is driving a car.
"I''m going to buy a car too."
As I walked along, adding one more to my purchase list, I came across a ruin filled with the wreckage of a building that had been bombed and collapsed.
There were people there too.
what? This is our area."
A group of people was loading something into the truck.
Suwon is an abandoned city three years ago.
Everything that could be money had already been swept away, but there were still people who picked up scrap metal and recycled materials that were left.
The truck was marked as Shinjin Distribution.
The presence of monsters in this area is not felt. Only those who pick up scrap metal.
"Look at things."
Suho walked past them.
Seeing people and peeking into their lives means a lot to Suho.
It feels like the loneliness and loneliness that have engulfed my bones are being washed away.
They meet, talk, mix, and savor their return to society.
I hear people''s gossip.
what? Are you a mercenary?"
"Let''s work without caring."
There are two types of people walking around the field in that outfit.
A high-ranking Awakener who is confident in his skills, or a madman.
Suho walked away from them for a long time. The sun is setting slowly.
The signs of people that were often felt are disappearing one by one.
After a while, the city without lights was engulfed in darkness.
It''s a familiar darkness.
"It''s hunting time."
The tallest 7-story commercial building in the area.
Suho ran towards the building.
Papa!
Unbelievable speed for a human being.
However, Suho''s expression is serious as if he doesn''t like something.
''Is it after-effects?''
It was about the 7th floor, so he could jump at once, but his legs were not strong enough.
As if running into a wall, Suho stepped on the wall of the building and soared upward.
fault!
Suho, who climbed up to the roof of the building with two leaps, looked around with an unobstructed view.
Sniff, the smell of grass carried in the wind.
You can also feel the alien noise mixed with the crowing of insects.
"Shall we go from there?"
He blasted the new model towards the place where the smoke was rising.
Papa!
There was a group of people who had bonfires at the place where they flew on the roof of the building.
''This is bang.''
I flew back towards the place where I felt a new sign.
After five failures, I was able to meet a strange-looking creature in the apartment complex.
''I guess that''s right?''
It looked similar to what I had seen in photos at the management office before I came.
I got a little closer and watched them closely.
There were seven of them in total, and they were slowly approaching the guard room at the entrance to the apartment.
It looks like a group hunting.
I could feel something in the guard room, but looking down from the roof, I couldn''t see inside.
Killing the presence, he climbed down the wall and approached cautiously.
Over the shoulder of the goblins, their prey could be seen.
''dingo.''
He was growling desperately, but it seemed he was already bleeding.
The eyes of Suho and the wild dog, who were watching silently, met.
"Can I help you?"
The wild dog couldn''t speak to a human, but Suho heard the answer.
No, I felt the will.
"Then they are my prey now."
It wasn''t stolen, it was given away.
As the guardian approached, the goblins roared and roared.
"Kooek!"
"Sweet!"
Disappointed for a while.
When it was found that the person who appeared was empty-handed and alone, the goblins'' eyes turned ugly. Rather than running away, he seemed to have decided to hunt even humans.
"Quay!"
The three goblins rushed at the same time.
They are crude, but they have bamboo spears carved out of wood.
Nettle!
He was a weak goblin, but that sharp spear was powerful enough to pierce through human skin. It is also difficult to avoid a stab that entered from three directions at the same time.
Kwajik!
Humans chased the spear with the back of their hand as if chasing a fly, and grabbed the bewildered goblin''s collar. one in each hand. And one guy with his neck on his feet.
Aww!
The three goblins drooped with their necks bent at the same time.
"Queek!"
He screamed and chased the goblins scattered in all directions.
Before taking a few steps, the necks of the two guys caught behind were broken.
Conversely, one guy who was running away flew at his spear thrown by a human, and a stone on the floor flew at the other guy.
Nettle juice, Kwaduk!
One was speared to death, and the other had his head exploded.
It didn''t take 3 seconds for the lives of the 7 goblins to die out.

Suho frowned at the message window that appeared one after another in front of him.
"It also floats on Earth."
The reason why Suho, who was left alone on an unknown planet, was able to become the king of the forest.
The existence of a body that does not age for more than a thousand years.
Suho thought the reason was because of this message that made reality like a game.
"It''s been quite a while."
After the body was trained beyond the limit, the notification of stat increase was quite rare.
I really didn''t know that I would return to Earth and be bombarded with messages one after another. It''s also unfamiliar... .
"Is this your first message?"
So far, he has only met one message.
Stats rise!
The increase in stats such as strength, stamina, and agility is all Suho saw. This is the first such message in the last thousand years.
"Is this awakening?"
The feeling came.
Are you qualified to go through the portal now?
No more pain?
Suho thought, shrugging his chin.
A person awakens when dimensional energy is accumulated in the body and exceeds the limit. And through that phenomenon, he realizes one superpower.
"Why am I not here?"
He automatically finds out what kind of superpower it is, but he doesn''t remember anything. Suho thought deeply and read a message that was still floating on one side.
"Achievement Shop."
Papa.
A transparent window widened in front of me.
; Achievement Shop - Retained 7 Points
- Expendables
- equipment
- skill
"Ugh."
Suho opened the tabs one by one and checked.
There was no equipment or skill that could be bought with 7 points.
Even the lowest grade is given a score of more than 10 points.
"The only thing I can buy is water and bread."
1 point for a bottle of water and 2 points for bread.
Suho bought two.
pod.
Seeing the water bottle and bread held in his hand, he burst into laughter.
"It''s crazy."
And.
"I''m hot."
The achievement shop sold everything.
Wouldn''t it be nice if there was a store like this rather than stat rise over the past thousand years? If it were, I wouldn''t have lived so savagely.
What happens when you return to Earth?
It''s a system error.
Maybe he is a mutation caused by error?
Whether the other Awakeneds were the same as me, it seemed that I still needed to confirm.
As I waved my hand, all messages disappeared.
"First of all, money."
A wild dog was lying at his feet as Suho was about to collect the goblin corpse.
"Okay, moan."
I have a deep wound on my hind leg. But the bleeding has already stopped.
Suho stroked the wild dog. Communicating with animals is an ability that Suho has acquired over the years. I can feel the guy''s feelings of gratitude.
"You don''t have to thank me. I hunt... ."
Suho''s stroking hand stopped.
Even though the wound had stopped bleeding, he could still feel the dwindling energy of his life.
"You are dying."
"Turn it off."
"It''s poison."
Suho''s gaze turned to the goblins.
The first alien species I''ve ever seen. I didn''t know it was poison.
Get hurt, poison and die.
I watched the very natural providence of nature. In the meantime, the wild dog''s feelings continue to be transmitted.
earnest and earnest... .
what do you want?
Do you want to live? As Suho tilted his head, he felt another presence in the management room.
"Ki-ing, kyung."
A skinny puppy came and licked its dying mother.
As Suho looked at the puppy, the mother''s feelings changed.
"If you''re so relieved, how can I take on this guy ."
The words could not carry on.
The mother wild dog, who was barely holding on to it, stopped breathing.
"Keeing. Shut off."
He shook his head as he watched the guy rubbing his head with his mother in a restless way. Maybe it''s because it''s related.
"Would you like some bread?"
The first wealth on Earth.
Suho was such a crowd.
